Hero & Animation Optimization for Webflow Landing Page

The Challenge

Project Overview

InvestorLift is a real estate technology platform that uses Webflow for their marketing landing pages. Their primary landing page needed speed optimization to improve conversion rates.

The landing page had heavy animations, large hero media, and multiple third-party tracking scripts that slowed the initial load. Since this page drives paid traffic, every second of delay was costing conversions.
